Sanjeev Narayan; from tragedy to triumph, May 2011

Sanjeev Narayan recently featured in issue 89 of Australian MuscleMag but since we couldn't fit everything into the printed version, we thought we'd expand on his story at Go Figure as its an inspirational one:

After years of dominating his weight classes and winning National Titles, Sanjeev Narayan finally achieved his dream of turning Pro when he received his Pro Card shortly after the NZIFBB Nationals in October 2010 from NZIFBB President Moe Moussawi.

Hunk of Spunk, Peter Hardwick's Birthday!

Lisa and Peter

Happy Birthday Peter!!!

Sorry I didn't get you a present Peter but hopefully this public exposure of what a handsome hunk you were (oops are) on your birthday is my way of saying thank you.

Thank you for the time and effort you've put into bodybuilding over the many years and your generosity in helping people from all aspects of life and sport.

Harbour Hunk, John Templeton's Crossfit Workout, April 2011

Some of you will recognise our hunk John Templeton and his winning ripped physique that took out the NABBA Counties and the NABBA Nationals Novice Athletic Tall Class in 2010.

But John hadn't always been so muscular. When John joined the army in 2003, he was only a 52kg infantry soldier when he was posted to East Timor for a 6 month operational tour.

During that time he fell in love with training and set his sights on becoming an Army PTI (physical training instructor). After successfully passing the intense PTI selection process and the 6 month PTI training course John was given the opportunity of a lifetime and posted to train the New Zealand Special Forces.

John Left the Army in 2010 and started running boot camps and personal training which has led him to train some unique athletes ranging from senior citizens trying to lose weight and get in shape, body builders, boxers, football and rugby players, MMA fighters and a current NZ record holding Power lifter. John himself now weighs a lean 80kg and won the NZ 2010 Athletic Tall Bodybuilding competition.

Today John maintains his conditioned physique by doing 3-4 crossfit workouts a week. We asked John to show us 5 exercises that you can incorporate in your next workout if you wanted a change from your routine.

John will be making a move soon to Mount Maunganui and will be doing Crossfit bootcamps there. Check out www.mountcrossfit.com

Souther Hunk Returns; Rede Frisby update. March 11

You can't keep a good southern man down ....or off the stage for very long. Just as we thought ANB Asia Pacific Novice u70kg champ was going to take time off to grow, he reveals he's competing again.

In his sights is the NABBA/WFF Christchurch on 29 April and as you can see from the pic, Rede's looking great and will no doubt return with an even leaner and bigger body. Well, that's what he hopes anyway. Let's find out more about how he's approaching this contest.

right: Rede @ 6 weeks out on 19 March '11.
